The White House Correspondents Dinner, the crown jewel of Washington’s spring prom season, roared back this past week, freed from many of the physical and psychological restraints of the COVID-19 pandemic. But the pandemic is but one of the many turning points in the dinner’s long history — which includes Mummers. George Condon, the White House Correspondents Association historian and White House correspondent for National Journal, joins the podcast to discuss this august D.C. institution.
